Instagram is one of the most engaging social media platforms out there right now. Every day, tens of million photos are uploaded, and the network recently surpassed one billion users.

The average attention span of an adult is shorter than ever, which makes it all the more challenging for social media marketers to capture their target audience’s attention while they’re swiftly scrolling through their newsfeeds.

For instance, if you sell vegan-friendly candles, then you might check out #vegansofig and like several photos from users who also use this hashtag. By liking several posts and perhaps leaving a comment or two, users will take notice and likely go check out your own Instagram page out of sheer curiosity. This tactic is much more active than simply using relevant hashtags because your Instagram account name will appear several times in the notifications lists of people who are in your target audience.

What’s the secret to building your own business? The short answer is there is no magic bullet. Rather success (or failure) hinges on numerous factors. You’ve done your homework, evaluated your own strengths and weaknesses and found the industry that’s right for you. You’ve raised the capital, made the investment and hired the employees. You’ve opened your doors.
